Update: Here is my return method:

[WebMethod]
public static Dictionary<string, object> GetBusinessFlights()
{
    listRows = new List<List<string>>();
    business = new Table();
    economy = new Table();

    FillTable(economy, business, scheduledFlights.List);

    foreach (TableRow row in business.Rows)
    {
        listRow = new List<string>();

        foreach (TableCell cell in row.Cells)
        {
            listRow.Add(cell.Text);
        }

        listRows.Add(listRow);
    }

    field = new Dictionary<string, object>() { { "draw", "1" }, { "recordsTotal", economy.Rows.Count.ToString() }, { "recordsFiltered", economy.Rows.Count.ToString() }, { "aData", listRows } };

    return field;

}

Note: The FillTable() only fills in the data into the business and economy Table objects.

DataTables: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined?

So, here is my AJAX call for the DataTables table object. I am trying to get the JSON to fill in a table with rows only, as it already has header rows.

I am not clear as to what the syntax of the DataTables ajax calls are, as they differ from one version to the other.

$('#MainContentPlaceHolder_business_return_flights').dataTable({
    "ajax": {
        "url": "Browse.aspx/GetBusinessFlights",
        "type": "POST",
        "contentType": "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        "dataType": "json"
    }
});

I keep getting the error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined

Here is the JSON being returned:

{
  "d":{
  "draw":"1",
  "recordsTotal":"70",
  "recordsFiltered":"70",
  "aData":[
             [
